Topic: Bit Super Lab (Read 2092 times)

After reading the DPOS whiter paper, I have an idea to form a super lab to join the competition of DPOS mining, because providing good service as a stable DPOS delegate is a challeging work, and could be very interesting and profitable.

Two goals:1. Act as one of the 100 delegate mining nodes, and keep stable with high reputation, 100% online.2. Testing DPOS network, reseach on all kinds of attack and cheating possibility. Find the flaw of other 99 mining nodes.

Any ideas, or anybody intent to collaborate?

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

This is exactly the benefit of DPOS... 100 highly reliable nodes makes the 'nodeshare' concept that BTC is facing unnecessary.

Big money to be made here by providing this service to the network.

1) Ability to run provided software on a low-latency connection 2) Ability to setup a secure linux environment 3) Ability to get 1% of the vote... a) unique geographic location b) trusted member of the community c) 1000 BIPS (a couple of PTS or AGS) registration fee... (keep out spammers)

Remaining a delegate requires: a) low latency, 99.9% uptime b) non-discrimination of valid transactions c) better reputation than all but the top 99

How to earn the best reputation: a) Provide the most additional services for your pay. - seed node supporting thousands of connections - block explorers - free web wallets - high speed blockchain downloads b) Provide the most proof as to your transparency

You get the idea... who ever is willing to provide the most service for their pay will likely win over someone attempting to provide the least service.

As I understand, to prevent from DDOS for 99.9% uptime, the server might need to be distributed around the world, have 24 hour clock team to operate, high quality mining software etc.

Brainstorm might be needed first.

The requirements exclude me personally. While I might have the bare minimum linux-skills to get the basics up and running, I have health problems that make it impossible for me to guarantee 100% up-time and responsiveness in case of trouble.

Should initial costs be to high, perhaps this could be crowdfunded/sourced or setup similarly to mining pools where a team maintains a couple of servers, like Amazon cloud-servers or similar, and members of those pools share the costs and parts of the profits.

That is why we need to collaborate to form such a super lab!

I would like researches of this lab to be open, free to share, and high quality peer review, which could form an technical advantage as a team and be easy to fork, the other key points are depend on operation of mining servers

I'm not sure whether there are ways to securely share delegate secret key between multiple operators, may be we can find ways. Otherwise, we can also easily to fork to multiple delegate operators using similar strategy from DPOS Super Lab, but in this case, keeping it 100% up-time could be a problem.

The first thing could be do researches or delegate software optimizations.
